LONDON : TUESDAY EVENING. OCTOBER 23, 12311. It seems to be the prevailing opinion among all persons who have turned their attention to the subject, excepting always those who write against every Go vernment measure, good or bad, that in the ensuing Session of Parliament Ministers ought to propose some plan for carrying into effect the recommendations of the Irish Railway Commissioners. Indeed it is almost obvious that without the assistance of the State the three great lines of road proposed cannot be completed. The Irish landlords have no money to spare for such undertakings. English capitalists do not like em barking property in that country, and even if they had no prejudices in that respect, the calculation of the Commissioners that not more than 4 per cent. could for years be realized on the capital expended would be sufficient to deter men from risking their money in such a speculation, when they calculate on at least double the amount of profit from similar un dertakings in England. The State, too, has a manifest interest in promoting these lines of communication ; it has facilities superior to those which any private com pany could expect, and would gain probably more in a few years by the increased consumption of ex cisable articles than the whole sum required for the completion of the works. Independent of these circumstances employment would thereby be given to thousands who must be fed in workhouses, or shipped to the colonies, at an expense which in a short period would amount to no trifling proportion of the original outlay. The two great lines to the South and North would not cost more than five millions ; and when Mr. SPRING RICE and his colleagues re flect what benefit might be done by expending that sum at the rate of about a million a year, and what results may, with mathematical certainty, be expected, they cannot hesitate for a moment as to the course they ought to pursue. Of course we take it for granted that they are to act like men of business—that every precaution is to be taken against jobbing, and that enormous sums are not to be awarded by interested parties for allowing a railway to run through an estate which that very railway makes doubly valuable. The extravagant compensation granted by Juries in England for what are called damages, but which in reality are great benefits—the enormous sums ex pended in contesting lines which might have been settled by a Government survey at a trifling expense— and the heavy tax which, in consequence, the public must for ever pay, are great blots in our Municipal and Legislative system, and ought to have long ago occupied the attention of Parliament. The following judicious remarks of the Com missioners apply to England as well as Ireland ; and had such a principle been acted on, the saving to the public would have been incalculable :—" We recom mend that the Act of Parliament be granted free of any charge, as for a public measure ; that a mode of de termining the amounts to be paid in compensation of land and damages be adopted on principles more fixed, and independent of private or local bias, than the present practice ; and that some general enactment be provided, authorising, to a certain extent, alterations of obvious utility, to be introduced, in the original plan, without the costly expedient of resorting in every case to Parliament for a new or amended Act." The papers have of late contained several complaints of the arrogance and insolence of the servants of some Railway Companies, who, conscious that the com plainants can find no other conveyance, indulge in a very discreditable tone of insult. One gentleman, Mr. KENDRICK, had all his luggage brought to London from Blisworth in spite of his remonstrances, and had to pay six shillings for its being sent back to him. Another gentleman, with his family, who had come by the train from Manchester to the Birmingham road, was obliged to wait six hours because the train by which he should have been forwarded to London had started without waiting the arrival of that from Manchester, and the Manchester train was wilfully delayed by overloading it. When he complained, and talked of hiring a post-chaise to come to London, he was set at defiance, and sneeringly told that a chaise he might get, but the horses had all been taken off the road. The se eret of the insolence of the servants of the Railway is thus explained to us. The superiority of railway travel ling overcommon roads, gives it complete monopoly to the railway. Other travelling is put an end to; all travellers must go by the railway just as all voyagers must speedily go by steam vessels to the United States, because their superiority will put an end to the Liners. Now this is an effect of railways which was foreseen before they came much into use, and was predicted in the Spectator eight or ten years ago. Against the consequences, therefore, of such a contingency it became the duty of the Legislature to provide, but we believe that in all the Railway Bills hitherto passed it has been totally neglected. The Legislature even refused to take up Mr. MORRISON'S suggestion to subject the laws for carrying these new contrivances into execution to pe riodical revision. The consequence is that the Railway Companies have received monopolies very injurious to the public comfort and the public interest, which new Acts of Parliament will be required to abate, but which cannot be abated, without causing a great outcry against a v i o l a ti on o f vested rights. Such a result would have been avoided, probably, had the Board of Trad e — t h e d e p artment w hi c h is bound to look to this matter—been filled by men of a statesmanlike capacity. To look ahead is now far more essential to a politi cian than to look astern, and if Mr. POULETT Tuomsox had done that, the public would not now have had to complain of the great disappoint ment caused by the slovenly manner in which the Legislature has sanctioned the carrying into execu• tion a most noble mechanical improvement. Will such blunders be avoided in future ? If the Report of the Irish Railway Commissioners, which shuts them out, is not to be carried into execution, will the private Companies:and speculator, who are condemn ing that Report, and seeking for Railway Acts, receive the monopolies they pray for under a due subserviency to the public interests ? We hope so, though it is very plain that they, and their partizans in the Press, are endeavouring to mislead the public, and procure injurious monopolies under the pretence of promoting private enterprise and of freely employing private capital. Those politicians who are very fond of referring for a justification of their measures to ancient Greece or Rome, to England under ELIZABETH, or to France under Louis XIV., will be very apt to discard, as of no value, the experience of the last few years. We however think it particularly and peculiarly valuable, and beg therefore to remind the Tories and the priest hood of one or two of the extraordinary lessons it teaches. Although we deeply It gret the preference which the masses have evinced for the Charter to the abolition of the Corn-laws, we cannot join with our Tory Contemporaries and Ministerial partizans in ridiculing their exertions. We remember that in 1819 Parliamentary Reform was given up by nearly all our leading politicians, and by nearly all the middle classes ; and that the operatives, with HUNT at their head, were sabred at Peterloo, amidst the shouts of the triumphant Tories, without exciting much commisera tion in the middle classes, and with a total denial of justice, for meeting to promote Parliamentary Reform. But that which was so brutally denied by the Tories in 1819 was triumphantly and peacefully achieved in 1832. By that great change, all the autho rity of prescription in favour of the constitu tion of Parliament was destroyed, and all the reasons by which further change can be resisted, were amazingly weakened. The predictions of enor mous evils from the change have been falsified, and the Tories can no longer terrify the timid, by their prophesies, into submission to wrong. The expe rience, then, we have had of the progress of Parlia mentary Reform, induces us to warn the sneering Tories and the arrogant Aristocracy, that the claims of the Chartists are not to be despised. The progress of Parliamentary Reform which has led to a very general demand for a further 'improve ment of the system, may be taken as a specimen of the tendency of society in constitutional matters ; and the progress of the tithe question is an index to the same tendency in ecclesiastical matters. In 1828 that pillar of the Church, the Test Act, was abolished in spite of WELLINGTON, PEEL, and the Bishops. In 1829 the same parties were reluctantly compelled, because the country would no longer support their unjust in tolerance, to pull down another pillar, and con cede the Catholic, claims. The denunciations of the Catholics for subsequently opposing the tithe system, the reproaches of perjury and deceit heaped on them by the Protestant parsons and their scribes, the use of flying artillery, tithe sales, and Exchequer processes, have all led to one concession after another to the tithe payers—to one vote of re ward and remuneration after another, till all parties agreed last Session to pass a Tithe Bill, which taxed the empire to pay the arrears of the recusants, and struck off 25 per cent. from the Protestant parsons' in• come. One would think that this was progress enough, in the short space of seven years, to satisfy the most scep tical of what is to come, and which the Irish Catholics and Irish landlords are now engaged in realizing. The leading article which we copy from the Times will put our readers into possession of some of the facts on which we found our anticipations, and will convince them of the despair of the Tories by the Painful and thrilling howl which the prospect extorts from their well-trained tiger. Tithes in Ireland, in name and in substance,will as surely be extinguished as the sun will continue to rise day after day. The progress already made, the projects already avowed, and plans now formed in Ireland, together with the reluctance to de feud and support the impost in Ene-iand, make it pim possible to doubt that such must be the result. But tithes, because they were an onerous burden, have been commuted in England. Every character istic of sacredness has been taken from them, and they rest a hateful and painful burden, on our impoverished, unjust, and greedy land owners. They were commuted at prices regulated by the Corn-laws ; and whenever the Corn-laws are abo lished—as abolished they must be, or this country will be a prey to one of the most disastrous revolutions that the world ever saw—the landowners of England will surely not, by paying the tithes, give the whole of their remaining property to the priests. Already, we see by a Maidstone Paper, that the Kentish chetry growers grumble amazingly at the tithes. By the alteration made last Session in the duties on fruits, the price of their produce it is stated, is reduced in the proportion of 12s. to 55., while no corresponding reduction is made in the rent-charge into which tithes have been commuted. Now, notwithstanding the avarice and cupidity of the landlords, it will be impossible for them to re-enact the old duties on raisins, currants, apples, and pears. The reduction once made the duty cannot be again enhanced ; for the whole progress and ten dency of modern legislation is to reduce and lessen duties and remove restrictions. The reduction of the duties on fruits will be followed rather by a reduction of the duty on corn, and ultimately, if not immediately, by the abolition of the Corn-laws ; and then the same coin - plaints will be everywhere made against the tithes as are now made by the Kentish fruit-growers. The abolition of them will be hastened here by the aboli tion of the satne hated impost in Ireland. If the ex perience of the last twenty years may be considered in any degree as an index to the progress of the next twenty years, we hazard nothing in predicting, be fore the conclusion of that period, the total end, in " substance as well as name," to tithes in every part of the empire. Now, the experience of the last few years, taken as an index to the future, ought to warn and alarm our landowners. No person in France in the year 1770 anticipated that destruction of the nobility and priesthood of France, which was completed 'be fore 1795. No doubt the proud ecclesiastics of that country, and its arrogant nobles, con sidered th emse l ves as perfectly secure, and the de spised peasants completely humbled, as do our pre sent scornful priests and greedy landlords. Nor had they less reason to consider themselves safe. Their power and authority had been unquestioned for ages. It was engrafted into the habits of all men's lives, and the evils they suffered seemed rather a part of the natural order of society than the results of priestly and baronial oppression. The public could not point to them as the authors of the Devil's laws—they were not stigmatized as starving the people to enrich themselves—they were not accused of stifling manufactures, interdicting trade, and maintaining a cut-throat policy towards other countries, for the base purpose of putting pelf into their own pockets. The priesthood were not the avowed enemies of large bodies of their countrymen ; not the champions of political oppression, for the sake of pre serving Church supremacy.Nepitprsheearthetopruise,stsasnomrutchhe landlords of France , had, as a reason for alarm in 1770 as our priests and landlords have at present. Yet both, in little more than twenty years, saw all their property confiscated, and were exiled from the land of their fathers. If modern expe rience be not wholly disregarded,that urlandowners shoinlodwbneeresnot:gnhd to alarm those who , their colleagues, the clergy, now insist en de luding, defrauding, and starving the people. Tithes, we believe, they cannot preserve ; and if they would not see rent, which they have degraded to a hateful tax by the Corn-laws, follow the same course of extinction as tithes, they will at once sacrifice the tithes and the Devil's laws. We yesterday noticed an anniversary meeting of tradesmen in the employ of the Tories, held at Liver pool on Thursday last. Sorry and shabby as the af fair was, it was, it now appears, destined to be out done by a still sorrier, shabbier, and, if possible, more ridiculous exhibition on die following day. We do not know whether any one out of Liverpool is aware of the circumstance, but there is in that town an Operative Conservative Association, in other words, a pack of the most corrupt and worthless of the freemen, who have been in the habit of selling their votes to the Tories at elections, and on whom the above designation has been conferred for the purpose of leading the simple into a belief that the operatives of Liverpool are staunch Tories I And simple indeed must he be who can be so deceived, fur none but an idiot can fail to see that the words " Ope rative" and " Conservative" stand, and erer will stand, in direct and irreconcileable hostility to each other. This Association, however, or rather its movers, finding, we presume, that a cheap display might be made out of the fragments of the tradesmen's grubbery of the previous day, at 10d. a head, a pint of heavy-wet included, contrived to get a certain number of the members to gether on Friday, and gave, what they no doubt wish to be considered, a grand entertainment to the repre sentatives of the borough. These gentlemen of course attended, as in duty bound, and along with them the able and lively legislator who rejoices in the name of BOOTLE WILBRAHAM, and that Reverend firebrand Rector CAMPBELL. Each of these personages re peated to the so-called operatives fragmentary portions of the orations which had been addressed to the trades men. In this respect we think the " operatives" had the best of it. The following extract from a letter from Candia, dated the 20th ult., shows that there prevails some difference of opinion among the inhabitants, as to whether they are happier as the subjects of the Viceroy of EGYPT, than they would be wider the dominion of the SULTAN. Nothing can better indi cate the mildness of IVIErr EM ET AL Cs adminiw.ration, than the simple expression of such a difference of opinion on the part of any portion of the Candiotes. Were they the subjects of the Porte, the bowstring would be invoked to put an end to such treasonable deliberations : CANDIA. SEPT. 20.-1 dare say you will have heard that the Mohamedan population of this place, excited probably by the emissaries of the Porte, have shown a dis position to avail themselves of the absence of our popular Governor, Mustapha Pacha, to get up something like n movement against Mehemet Ali, w h o, whatever may be said of his rule elsee here, has bee n a great b ene f actor to this island. He has introduced a spirit of toleration which was wholly unknown in former times, and placed Mohamedan and Christian on a footing of perfect equslity. Ti.is has, no dncbt, given umbrage to the fanatical Mussulmans, who have seen with great dis gust the distribution of equal rights and equal justice to the whole populatiou, without distinction of religion. Mustapha Pacha, however disliked by the persecuting and ignorant portion of the Turks, is much beloved by the Candiotes generally ; and when he left for Syria, to assist Ihrahilt Paella against the Druses, he re ceived unequiv,,cal marks of the affection of the people, and was accompanied on ship-board by the prayers arid tears of a numerous body of the islanders. His return is a subject of great gratulation. Our revenues are rapidly improving under his Administration, and we hope to see a portion of them applied to the repairs of the roads and other public works, which would enable the rich capabili ties of art to be developi2d. All that is wanting is peace to allow agriculture and commerce their full extension. Me hemet Ali confers on Mustapha Pacha powers which are almost unlimited ; he IA largely paid and liberally supported by his master, and it i, no small satisfaction to have, in any part of the Levant, a Mohatnedan ruler, whose sway is distinguished for moderation, in'egrity, and good sense. While he is Governor, the tranquility of the island is not iikuly to be troubled. About two-thirds of tlte population of the whole island are Christians of the Greek Courch ; so that the import ance of a co.iciliatory and tolerant spirit exceeds all esti mate. Nlustapiia Pach tis an Albanian by birth. acces ibl . is to all judicious councils, urhilee and gentlemanly in his deportment, attached to the English, and generally exhi biting his sense of the value of European opinion, and his knowledge of the supriority of m coy of our instatutauns. The Paris Journals of Sunday are more than usually barren of all interesting political intelligence. In the Sentilrelle de Pyrenees we find the following announcement of the arrival of the Princess of BEIRA in Spain : On the 15th the Princess of Beira passed through Bayonne, on her way to j o in D on C ar l os , to whom she is married. The Prince of the Asturias, who accompanied the Princess, had been sent for by his father to place him at the head of the army. The former Minister, Ramirez de la Pestina, several chiefs acrd officers, the widow of Gutierres, and the two sons of General Maroto, reached the provinces about the same time. Carlist troops had been stationed along the frontier to protect dr, it entranci', and the Infante Don Sebastian had repaired to Elisondo to receive his mother. Maroto is still at Estella. The columns of General Alaix and Diego Leon continued on the 18th to occupy Tarfalla and Olite. The Journal de Commerce publishes a letter from Berlin, dated the 14th inst., in which it is distinctly stated that the motive which induced the Emperor NICHOL AS to v i s it G erman y was t h e d: sire to be admitt e d a M em b er o f t h e G erman i c C on f e d e ration. To effect this the CZAR purposed to obtain from Rus sia her share of the first partition of Poland in ex change for an equal extent of territory to be agreed upon by the two Powers. The King of PRUSSIA, how ever was, it appears, by no means disposed to second the ambitious views of the CZAR. He re ceived the proposal not only with indifference, but with marked ill-humour ; and if we may credit this writer, the meeting of the Royal and Imperial families was very far from being productive of the most friendly feelings on either side. The CZAR, who calculated on the cordial support of Prussia, Bavaria, and Ha nover, as a counterp o is e aga i nst t h e oppos i t i on o f Austria, was deeply mortified at finding that in Prussia he was likely to meet with as sturdy an op ponent as he anticipated in Austria. The Messager contains the following curious para graph relative to the departure of Prince Louis NAPOLEON, from Switzerland : " Just as Prince Louis Napoleon was on the point of quitting Arenenberg, he received a message from Prince Aletternich, offering him, in the !lam:. of the Emperor, an asylum in the Austrian dominions, where h e would be t re ated as a Prince allied to the Imperial family o f A ustria. The Prince declined , saying that he preferr e d accepting the hospitality offered him b y th e British Government, because it was the onl y one tlia*. did not support the de,- mond for his expuls ion, presented by M. de M onte b e ll o. " This statement is very impiohable. No part could he be assigned Prince METTERNICH less in keeping with his established reputation as a statesman. A ustr i a, ? the asylum of political refugees Impossible. The following extracts, from the journals o f S un d ay, include all the news they contain of any moment : " The Madrid Gazette contains a report of the Captain- General of New Castile, stating that on the 27th ult. the band of the Carlist chief Arnau had been routed near t h e heights of Ramiro, with the lo ssof 28 killed, many wounded, and 17 prisoners. The Queen's troops captured on that occasion 1,600 head of cattle. " General Van Halen, the Commander-in-Chief of the Army of the Centre, arrived in Murviedro on th e 7 t h . " A letter from Tampico , published in the Indicateur de Bordeaux, gives a list of the number of vessels which hate come into Mexican ports in despite of the French blockade. Four entered Alvaredo, five at Tecoluta, two at Barra Ciego, one at Matamoros, and lately the IVaterwitch from Liverpool. Brussels and German Journals have been received this morning. Their contents are of some interest, as will be seen from the following extracts : Bzaux, OCT. 14.—The political murder at Cracow, and other alarmiag events in that litsle republic:, Lase, it is said, induced the three protecting Pal era to increase the garrison. It is to be hoped that tranquillity will be restored in the country, that a repetition of able - occurrences flay not in the end briar down utwe is a fate similar to that of the ancient kingdom o`, Po; os I. Up to tho end of S.st,:sHs; 11,061 i ships had pass , 3 the Sound, though the navl i o.tion cornaicuced so late ; so that this year the tolls will be more than usually productive. The greatest number of ships that have passed the Sound in any one year, in the last twenty years, was 13,483, in the year 1829. STOCKHOLM, Ocr. consequence of the scarcity of corn, a royal proclamation of the 10th, prohibits the dis filiation of brandy for two months.

In fact, however, the Times, no more than The Sun, could avoid notic ing a rumour which was in general circulation yesterday, and which, except by the chance of a letter having been received from the Noble Lord of the latest pos sible date, was scarcely susceptible of a positive con tradiction.

Charloile Ponieroy way quantity of jewellery, the property . of a widow named Cook, and Ann Bartlett was indicted with feloniously re ceiving the same, well knowing them to be stolen. - Mr. CLARKSON conducted the pro...,ocution. Mrs. Catherine Cook stated that she wa,;7 a widow, and resided on the 18th of October at the house of Mr. Justine, in East-place, Lambeth ; on that day went to the cash-box in her bed-room, where she kept her money and. jewellery : at that time everything was safe, but shortly afterwards all was missed. In that box was a diamond pin, value 251., and - a gold neck chain, worth 141., together with a great number of other articles of jewellery, of the ,value of up wards of 501. The prisoner Pomeroy was in the service of Mr. Justine, and waited upon the witness. No other person could have access to the room but the prisoner, as there was no other servant in the4iouse. I with ste 14rge Brodie, a policeman of the L division, in consequence of the information he had received, went to the Surrey Theatre and took the prisoner Bartlett into custody, telling her that he wanted her for a robbery in the house of Mr. Justine ; she said that she had nothing to do with it, that Pomeroy was then in the theatre, and that the things were at her mother's house. Witness followed Bartlett's direc tions, and found the box and the articles of jewellery, buried in the dust heap. Upon the box being discovered, Bartlett said that Pomeroy had brought in her dirty linen. The prisoners declined asking the witness any question. Bent, also a policeman of the L division, corroborated the evidence of the last witness. Sewell, a police officer, took Pomeroy into custody on Friday last. Upon asking her if she had any property be longing to Mrs. Cook, she put her hand in her pocket, and gave him a silver clasp. Mrs. Cook identified the clasp as her property, and stated that it was in her lost box. William West , the shopman to a pawnbroker in Mount street, Lambeth, produced a gold neck-chain and eye-glass, which he received from the prisoner Bartlett in pledge, who stated that she brought it from Mrs. Lavalott. The shopman of• Mr. Savage produced a wedding-ring, pledged at the shop of his master by Bartlett. Pomeroy was present. He also produced other articles which had been pledged by Pomeroy. Mrs. Cook identified ;11 the articles as her property. This was the case for the prosecution. Both prisoners declined saying any thing in their defence. Several witnesses gave the prisoner Pomeroy a good character. The RECORDER summed up, and the Jury found both prisoners guilty. The COURT sentenced Pomeroy to ten years' transporta tion, and Bartlett to seven years. The sentence of Pomeroy to be accompanied with a recommendation of remittal to one year's imprisonment. TH. ARSON CASE —The Grand Jury have ignored the bill against the pauper who is charged with attempting to set tire to Aldersgate world' ouse. NEW COURT. Peter Wilkinson,-agel 15, was indicted for stealing a watch anti guard, value 61.. and four sovereigns, the pro perty of Captain Peter Williams, his master, from a vessel in the river Thames. The prosecutor stated that he is commander of a coast ing vessel belonging to the port of Newport, which was lying on the sth of this month in the Thames. The prisoner came down to the cabin in the night and committed the robbery and absconded from the vessel. The watch has been recovered, but the prisoner had spent the sovereigns. A pawnbroker, residing at Stone's-end, pr o v e d th at th e prisoner offered the watch for pledge on the day after the robbery ; but as he gat e a very unsatisfactory account of it., he gave him into the custody of an officer, who found *he prosecutor's purse in his pocket. Verdict—Guilty. The COMMON-SERGEANT told the prisoner that, if the law empnwert.d him, he would transport him for seven years. He thought that ten years' exile was too much ; hence he would order that the prisoner be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for three months, three weeks of which he was to be kept solitary. Philip Johnson pleaded guilty to tn indictment charging him with embezzling 101. the property of William Collins, smith, to whom lie was clerk and servant. The prosecutor said he had lost other monies, but as the conduct of the prisoner bad been irreproachable for seven years down to a recent period, he recommended him to mercy. The COURT in consideration of this recommendation, in stead of - transporting him, sentenced him to six months' hard labour. GUILDHALL.-(THIS DAY.) Etienne Hubert, who was remanded a few days ago, charged with having committed robberies at the Ram Inn, Smithfield, and several other places, to a considerable ex tent, was again brought up, for the purpose of being com mitted. Sir P. LAURIE inquired how the prisoner had been get ting his living is this country. Sergeant WALLER replied that he had lived since Ja nuary last by plundering, and had never received anythif g from his friends during that time. He disliked France, and did not wish to go back again. Sir P. LAURIE said it was often very inconvenient for a man to go back to his own country. However, there arght be a country ►nore suitable for him.—(A laugh.) A cominuiiieation from Brighton was produced relative to a robbery committed there, and from the description there can b little doubt that the prisoner was the thief. The depositions in the cases of Mr. Stevens, Mr. Jack son, Mrs. Fok, Capt. W. Allen, and Mr. Dclaport, were then read over. A person, who stepped forward as interpreter for the pri soner, in answer to questions by the Magistrates, said that be knew nothing of the prisoner in France. Sir P. LAURIE thougi►t he must have escaped from some prison there. He must have had considerable practice sonwwhere, for these were not the depredations of anovice. The prisoner, who declined saying anything in his de fence, was then committed for trial. THE LATE FIRE IN PRINTING-HOUSE -SQUARE.— A boy about thirteen years of age, in the service of Mr. M‘Laaeilin, whose premisrs wore destroyed by fire on Saturday night last, was brought up, in consequence of some information which had been given to the office in which the property was insured by two persons named Brown, a mother and daughter, whose window is exactly opposite that of the workshop where the fire broke out. Tne statement alluded to was to the effect, that about ten minutes past seven they saw a boy with a lighted c. odic in each hand in the workshop, one of which threw a oongst some shavings upon ihe floor, and they immAiatcly gave an alarm, by opening the window and crying out " Fire !" Mr. M'Laughlin was in attendance, accompinied by a professional gentleman, we believe. MArgaret Brown, the daughter, an .1 her mother, Mary Brown, repeated the staternk.‘nt above mentioned. The boy stated that he had not enough wood tor the fi , es on Sunday and Monday mornings, and that he went into the carpenter's shop, and took the wood out of the fire place, and that a sp rk flew from the candle and set tile shavings on fir, rued that he was so perplexed that he did not know what to do, and therefore gave no alarm. Sir P. LAURIE said the story of the boy and that of the tamale was precisely - tne same, with the exception of the number of candies, and that, perhaps, m4itt be ac counted for by the reflection of two windows. It ap peared from the account given by the boy that the occur rence was purel; accidental. Mr. D. Mq:aughlio stated that the boy hid been par ticularly cautioned never to take a candle amongst the Sir P. LAURIE enquired how he took a candle, contrary to the orders of his master ? The prisoner replied that he could not see to get the wood without one. Sir P. LAWRIE said that he was quite satisfied that the two women had done their duty faithfully. He believed that many of the fires which unfortunately occurred were were not accidental, although that could not ba proved ; and any person who could give any information was only doing an act of justice in coming forward in the manner in which the witnesses had done. Mr. M'Laugblin, in answer to Sir Peter Laurie, stated that he was not aware the prisoner could have any motive for setting the premises on fire, and under that circum stance he was discharg e d, Sir Peter Laura remarking that he might be brought up again if anything further trans pired. MARYLEBONE—(THis DAY.) An elderly and rather well-dressed woman, named Isabella East, was brought before Mr. Hoskins, accused of the ingenio us d ev i ce d escr ib e d i n t h e ev id ence . William Walton being sworn stated that he resided at No. 8, Fitzroy -street ; yesterday evening, hearing a violent rapping at his door he opened it, when the prisoner in formed him, in very abusive terms, that her foot had slipped through an iron grating, over an aperture for letting coals down to a cellar belonging to him, by which she was considerably injured ; she also stated she had lost mon, - -y through it, and required to be allowed to go down, for the purpose of looking for it. This being the third time she had made a similar application at his house, and knowing from other sources that she had suc cessfully played the same tricks off on others —extorting money by pretending to be hurt—be had her taken into custody. In reply to the Bench, Mr. Walton said that he bad followed the priAmer yesterday evening, and observed her raise the grating of another house, and wilfully - drop her 611943 below, A constable of the E division statA he had seen her at different times rap at the (!cor, of houses in Charles-street ander the same circumsta ,1 . ilosuNs as and coin of Correction, to be ire t to h THE MARE..I'S la be little doubt of her one month to the House (11Abour, DAY.)
